Your bird is a wonderful part of your life
and you are happy to care for her day after day. However, you know that this
care may need to change depending on your bird’s needs, like when she gets
sick. How can you tell if this is happening?
Your pet needs you to think about all the
ways she tends to go about her day. Chances are she has a lot of little habits
she takes part in and is very routine oriented. Veering from these habits are
what you will be on the lookout for. Changes in her behavior, both small and
large, could indicate that she isn’t feeling well and needs some additional
attention. Common symptoms of sickness involve increased lethargy, refusing
food, changes in elimination consistency, and spending time on the bottom of
her cage. For more information, please
contact your local Niwot, CO veterinarian.
